Waves on some sand banks but mostly no wave interference. Pakefield Corner has the last of the wooden groyne sea defense, so care should be taken when kiteboarding close to this for obvious reasons. The beach is clean and has some small stones, pebbles and joins Lowestoft Beach which holds the EU Blue Flag Beach award and has pristine golden sand. Lowestoft is the most easterly point of England and takes advantage of numerous wind directions. Wind are predominantly sideshore either from the north or the south.

However, winter conditions are harsh and the sea temperature low and very cold warranting 5mm wetsuits and hoods in deep winter. Water: Shallow, Chop. Features: Shop, Toilet, Food.
